okay so my uncle has this boat and it had a 3.0L 4 banger in his boat that cracked the block. boat is a inboard/outboard style ... he pulled it out and i was looking at the "bell housing thingy" where the motor bolded in ... its 16" side to side and looks like a LT1 or LS1 has room ... so i know the cooking system is totally different but other than that ...any one what is different or can a "car" motor bolt into a boat with relative ease?
There isnt really anything dif about the motor itself, just the drive coming off the back. Id talk to a boat shop (or a boat race forum) and find what it takes to swap a gen 1 sbc into it and bam youre set. Just keep in mind, the opti does not like moisture... and you get a lot of that one a boat...
Making you silky smooth...
Yeah i would switch to reg distributor and carb. Otherwise pretty much regular sbc. Just need electric fuel pump.

Odds are its a baby alpha O/D unit, and even detuned I would bet an LT1 has the power to break it. They are not rated for that much HP in stock OE form. (shocking right, LT1 has the power to break something??)
so here is the boat bellhousing thing
